I first thought of Bach because whatever I believe about God is in that music. The piece that came to mind is a setting for piano of one of the chorales, very Protestant, of course, played by the great Jewish pianist, Vladimir Horowitz. I think this music transcends all religion. I couldn't find the music in Winston so I asked my niece, a fine flutist, to look in Philadelphia, where of course, Curtis* could get it for me.

Lee and I were in Venice outside Saint Mark's Cathedral and heard the opening notes of the organ prelude in B minor and headed right inside, in that fabulous setting. To us it represents universality. Bach you can play on a kazoo and it is marvelous
